Last night the city was loud and noisy. I’ve been hanging around Eureka, a city in Humboldt County of Northern California. I like cities and I like Eureka. But sometimes it is nice to find some peace and quiet. And one of my favorite quiet places is only a few miles drive from Eureka.
First though, we stop at the casino to fill up with gas, since it has the best price on gas in this county. Then we make a quick stop in Ferndale to buy a cup of coffee at Mind’s Eye Manufactory & Coffee Lounge. Mind’s Eye is one of the most unique coffee shops anywhere. And they make great coffee.
After fueling up, we drive out to Fleener Creek on the Lost Coast. Fleener Creek has become my favorite hiking trail. The short trail leads down to the beach. And the beach is often deserted. Which makes the area extra special.
Today was nice. I got to see pelicans and waves and dramatic scenery here on The Lost Coast of California. And I made taquitos for dinner. Can’t imagine a better day.

My name is Scott and in 2015, I bought a Ram ProMaster City to live in. Even though I didn’t know much about RV’s and campervans, I set about building the van out as a minivan camper. And in April of 2016, I moved into my minivan full time.
Over the years, I’ve learned you don’t need to have a big skill set to build your own campervan. And that living as a minimalist and utilizing solar power can be a less expensive way to live. I’ve also learned that a minivan can be a very comfortable home.
Please follow along as I document my journey.

The Bob Ross of vanlife. I always enjoy listening to you speak, it’s very calming.
👍
We care. You said no one cares but we do
I think he is right
@@Noonecarea45 You would.
I really enjoy these longer vlogs. They create a nice vibe and let one soak up the atmosphere. Thanks for taking us along and inspiring me to make taquitos.
I swear, Scott's favorite coffee shop is always the nearest locally owned shop around! I love it Scott! 😅
For the record, Olympia Coffee (any location) is number 1 and Mind’s Eye is number 2 on my favorite list.
It’s 3.37 am here in Spain and can’t sleep. Luckily I found your latest video and thought I would see what you’re doing. 🤣🤣
If this video can’t put you to sleep, nothing will
@@StaticCamperVanoh that’s funny. I’m enjoying your sense of humor. By the way I hate snakes too. 🤣🤣
Fab vlog Scott ~ I love the longer ones as it's an excuse to sit down and relax for longer! As someone from Scotland it's lovely to see a chilled look into somewhere unfamiliar to me. So many travel vlogs are frenetic and OTT 💚
Thank you
I have to make a cup of coffee every time I watch your videos!☕️☕️☕️
☕️
Coffee is life.
I lived in Eureka for over 10 years. If you never lived in a small town, Ferndale is the place. Redwoods are beautiful. Air is fresh, I had asthma but living there made it go away. You can walk around the whole town, it’s that small. Enjoy
I absolutely love the Redwoods!
Hawaii #1 air quality, Northern New Mexico #2
You make food anyway you want to make it! I like the way you made your taquitos- no vegetables! And I like the weirdos unite stickers by your stove from van city life! 🤣🤣
That is a very old sticker. Disco was a good dog even though he didn’t really like me much 😂
I enjoy your videos because you're always Cool 😎, Calm, collective, mild mannered Clark Kent.
Thumbs up 👍
Lovely video Scott. A few months back I texted my old college buddy Bob, who now lives in El Cerrito, and I asked him if he had ever visited the lost coast?" He texted me back this: I found it.
Hahahaha
Great reel, what beautiful bay. Thanks for taking me along on the walk. I did read somewhere that snakes are attracted to coffee! x
So pretty the trail with the fog.
It’s 7:38 AM here in Kuala Lumpur, and I’m gonna make myself a cup of coffee with your CZcams vlog on as an ASMR 🙂
Have a great morning Jeffrey
@@StaticCamperVan - You too Scott 🤝
You really had a good day, 53 minute video 😂. And I watched the entire 53 minutes😂. Good to see anyone having a good day, simple or otherwise 👍👍 Life’s too short to only spend it worrying about crap we can’t change. Have fun⭐️⭐️
That wasn't boring at all. I found it to be quite relaxing. Nice sights and nice sounds.
Nice road trip thank you for sharing it with us.
Scott this is so enjoyable seeing through your eyes and the way you give your listeners a feeling of being right where you are, experiencing the moments.
🙋♀️☕🌲
What a wonderful bird is the pelican / Its beak can hold more that its belly can
Owls & hummingbirds are two of my favorite birds.
The beauty of that coastline is is not like anything I’ve ever seen. It is not totally static…with the waves it is ever changing. I love the constant sound off the water… the mighty pacific gives many gifts. Was in that area last month and the “Pelican parades” that went up and down the shoreline provided ongoing entertainment. I care.
enjoyed that Scott.. thx.. TC from Ontario Canada.. 👍🙏
Thanks Kenny
Thanks Scott for a long video!! It’s because of you that I go exploring to different areas! Mine are just day trips as I live in sticks and bricks, and have a family. I take my dog with me and go explore walking trails that allow dogs. I also visit coffee shops in the local areas. We’ve had a lot of rain this summer here in NH. Sometimes rain for an entire week! I’ll probably continue exploring this winter, as long as the roads are dry!!
I agree. Day trips and overnights are the perfect solution for those of us tied to jobs and stick and bricks. So much yard work and home repair project maintenance etc. Just having a day or two now and then to explore different scenery heals the soul.
I think I am addicted to your videos. 😅
Nothing wrong with that
🤣🤣🤣😌
@ChippiSweet 😂
I’m in the east coast right now since July 31, this is making me miss being home in California ! Thanks for sharing your recent adventure along the west coast!!!
oh man. Another long vlog?? god is good. I am absolutely loving these.
Yes we care and love you too. Your goodness2👬👬👬👬👭👭👭👬👭 love.
Never heard of Lost Coast. Thanks for sharing the gorgeous sights and sound of the waves.😊
As a Humboldt local do not worry about the Mattole road to Petrolia. You don’t need 4x4. It’s a paved county road that’s curvy and hilly but drivable in any dependable car. The Mattole Beach and River are worth the trip.
Thanks for that. I drove this van out to Petrolia and Black Sand Beach several years ago, I have a video of it. But my van isn’t running well anymore.
YOU ARE A. CONNOISSEUR. OF SPACE AND FOOD 🌞
Ooh, Scott Ur so damn creative w/ your meals. Thnx for sharing your coastal experience video. 💘 it
What a wonderful adventure. Absolutely beautiful. Thanks for taking us along. You are great company ❤
Thanks Scott for the adventure what a beautiful place your at i love your taquitos ferndale what a nice place.😊
Love the longer videos! 🎉
I'm not bored I can't wait to be back and explore new places you have shown me. Have a great week.
REAL NICE VIDEO ! !
SUCH A HAPPY JOY TO
TUNE IN TO YOU ! !
❤ ❤
Ahhh what a Lovely day! Thanks for reminding me of how simple van life can be 😺💜
The best days are simple. Maybe that should be the video title
Didn’t know WalMart sold YellowBird good to know
It’s a bit hit or miss. Took half a dozen trips to different Walmarts in three different states for me to find some stocked.
I wish the Lost Coast wasn't so from the East Coast. But, it's an awesome place to visit, even vicariously. Thanks!
I look forward to your videos! When you are not posting, I always wonder where you are and what you are doing.
Hi Scott great video lovely scenery looks like your a good cook as well take care ❤ xx
I was super excited to recently see Yellowbird in my local grocery (Kroger) in Ohio! The seranno is still less expensive on Amazon but I took the opportunity to try the sriracha this time. I enjoyed it. Thankfully the bottle size is 9.8 oz. I also recently visited San Diego and had my first In-N-Out burger and fries. Loved it too. So pretty much any food mentioned on your channel goes on my wish list! Haha 😊
If I go to Homeland I can buy the Yellowbird sauce the big one 19.6 ounce for $10.49.
Ah, In-N-Out. We used to go to the original location in Los Angeles when I a kid.
I got lunch in Eureka (Moe's Pizza), on the day after Labor day. I visited the Redwood forest on my way to visited Crator Lake.
Hey Dude. Good to know you’re still out traveling. Hope you’re doing well
I'm going to try the Yellow Bird. Sounds really good. I really like the way you do your videos.
I admire what you are doing by living in your van, that is hard to do for some people but I hope that one day I will be able to do that. Good luck and be safe, God bless. Austin Tx.
I enjoyed the Taquito cooking segment, those were my favorite as a child too, i liked them them will Avocado sauce 😋 you really make some impressive meals for living in a Van 😊👍
I bought 3 in Texas one of them is habaneros n not bad. Larabars are great tasting and a cup of café fir the walkn, I do.
So wonderful travelog with the oceans are breathtaking.
Hmm, never thought of using toothpicks to make taquitos (good idea) a nice cup of coffee sounds good.
You always have me chuckling at the things you say & the way you say it. 😅
Absolutely beautiful scenery, thanks for taking us along! I too love pelicans, I think it’s neat how they fly across the water. I hear you with the price of gas, it hurts. Stay safe on your travels.
Wow as you were saying the word Jurassic Scott I said it at exactly the same time..spooky lol 😂 excellent town and stunning beach 🏖️ absolutely love your Chanel Scott very relaxing to watch 😊
Put a nonflammable "splint" on the lighter with tie wraps to straighten it out.
That was 100% my kind of day -- gorgeous seacoast, nap, lunch....what a sweet day.
I think your taquitos look delicious and your ingredients are perfect!
How refreshing to have a conspiracy over Yellow Bird bottle size ;
❤I have to buy some Yellow Bird. Enjoy your day Scott❤
Hey Scott...great video.
*I also finally found Yellowbird at Walmart in only smaller bottles. I live in nowhereville so at least I can buy it.
* Taquitos were also my favorite meal as a kid and still love them!
*I'm from CA and never heard of the Lost Coast. It's really beautiful.
* I have those exact lighters and I just love them. They hold a charge forever and no more disposables that always break.
I'm familiar with Nowhereville; I live in Wisconsin.
What a beautiful place on the coast.. Too bad ⛽ costs so much there. $4.77 here in Tx for ethanol free & it gets better ⛽ mileage than the 🌽 gas. Had the beach all to yourself along with the birds. You make cooking look so easy. Taquitos are the best. I like em with avocado & sour cream & cheese. Yummy.
Beautiful, thanks for sharing! I saw your article in The Sun, great job!
I didn’t know anything about that article being published
@@StaticCamperVan Is that legal of them to do?
@emartin851 it would appear so
@@StaticCamperVan Wow...
25:47
Scott you get that Jurassic park feeling too, haha, same here every time while driving through the forest on truck trails , total Jurassic park vibes, almost surreal , love it. Thanks for getting us to the beach.
Luving the longer vogs 😌, dont tink i luv anytin in my life ,as much as u luv ur coffee chap 😅, always a gud day wen u post brethren, god bless 🙌
Your cooking and food looks awesome. A few, quality ingredients. All that’s needed!
Oh yeah you are definitely hooked on Humboldt.. It happens fast. Have been here over 20 years. Living on wheels in Trinidad.🐢🌞🌊🌺🌻🐢
I live in Eureka and Trinidad is one of my favourite places!
What a beautiful place
No, I have never heard of the lost coast. Thank you so much for taking us there with you. It’s absolutely gorgeous!💜
I always enjoy watching your videos.. :)
Thanks Linda
Hello Scott, I enjoy having your videos as my traveling companion when I commute to and from work. I live camping on my vehicle comfortably with a fan and power station. I just received my 12 volt refrigerator freezer. I got a smaller one than yours. Mine is 37 quarts which is enough for wjat I need. I like the lift out basket and so far it's easy to use. The compressor is quiet. I have 300 watts of portable solar panels. Enough for me for now. I was surprised that you generally only drive 5 or 10 miles a day for fuel conservation. But you seem to know lots of places to park overnight. Gas is 3.50 where I live. I try to plan day trips and overnight. Lots of places to visit that are rural and interesting attractions. I have personal protection ( firearm). Do you as well?
Louisiana here. Always wanted to visit California. I'm retired.. Maybe if i had somone wanting to go with me and take our time...looks beautiful.
It can be. I grew up there. If you every do go, you can theoretically go to the beach and the mountains in the same day. I say that because it depends on traffic.
When the title was "Get lost" I knew you were going to the lost coast! So yes, I knew about the lost coast! And it's amusing that your standard is Taqitos (sp?) For most of my life my standard for Chinese food has always been fried rice. It's such a simple dish that most places get sloppy and it's not really worth it. A place that makes great fried rice, makes everything else really well too!
I figured you would know what I meant!
Gotta give you props, So-Cal native now living on the other side of the world and was able to finally order some Yellow Bird ,serrano and habanero, going through them like water bro 😂 Very nice on everything.
Sorry to get you hooked on Yellowbird
Good lord , I am totally relaxed!
Looks like heaven. Love the views, the water, the birds... just about everything!
The price of everything is skyrocketing getting crazy out here
I always enjoy watching your videos. Thank you for sharing❤
Thank you 🙏🏼
You have a wonderful talent of narrating the mundane. 🙂
Always enjoy your videos ,you really know are to enjoy life, You have a wonderful day !
You too, Terry
I’ve never heard of The Lost Coast. Glad you shared it with us.
Fun visit...👍👍
Yummy 😋 those Tacosittoes looks Delicious!👍❤️😋
Some day I want to get lost when I get rid of this ball and chain from work! I had a vacation trip planned out to visit Northern California years ago and got layed off about that time and was unable to go, but I hope I can make it to the lost coast Some day soon. Thanks Scott for sharing your get lost video I really enjoyed it. Take care out there my friend!
I happend to be looking at permits to hike and camp in the LC. Boy is it difficult.
Yes, it is. Best of luck. If nothing else, you can probably snag a first come, first served campsite. Especially now that summer is over.
That peaceful sound of the wild ocean in your video is wonderful.
Thanks for sharing your beautiful pleasant scenic day with us, loved today's vlog! So relaxing and comforting, I really needed this today🌞☕️
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching
Ooo! I love the lost coast!
Thanks for taking us along, Scott.
Our Costco has huge yellow bird bottles😂
👍🏼
What a spectacular place. I have never heard of the Lost Coast, but it's on my list now. The views were amazing!
That makes me happy!
Got randomly recommended this video and... I really like this guy. Immediately subscribed!
I highly recommend a device that looks like a writing pen, but it has a small magnet on the end to keep handy in your van. You simply wave it over the floor and the magnet will find that little screw for you.
It comes in handy when you're doing repairs and drop other screws or even when you're doing repair sewing to help you find a dropped needle.
I can't remember where I bought mine from but it sure comes in handy. It's no bigger than a writing pen 🖋
Also, I want you to know that I appreciate you sharing your life with us. ❤
Never heard of the lost coast. Nice video. I'm also enjoying the cool down in Eugene in my van
Beautiful video.
Thank you for the once again great video
Thanks Barbara
Great video Scott loved it , I’m struggling myself atm the humidity in the uk is really bad ❤❤❤
Fall weather is almost upon us. Hang in there.
I live in North East England and its cooled down a lot today, we had storms on Sunday and it's cooled it down.
If you are up for hearing good music, my friend Eric Naslund is in a band called Nighthawk and they regularly play at Blue Lake Casino.
Ooh a long one too
No food, no pelican friends!
Watching you eat burritos, me & my friend eats lots of em now. She eats with veg, & mine with everything. Enjoy!
I just love your videos! They are relaxing, with your walks, cooking, and just basic conversation 😃😃😃😃😃! ❤❤❤❤
Thanks Chrissy
❤ Good Evening Scott! Lost is a Beautiful place,like your on a island 🏝️,Calm , and quite 👍✌️🤞👌✨🙌🙏🇺🇸✝️🌅🌄🌻
I'm originally from El Paso , Tx. Have you ever heard of the famous " Chicos Tacos' there ? A unique take on the Taquito ! I to am a big fan of Taquitos !! Thanks for the video !!
No, I haven’t heard of those
Hi Scott. I so enjoy your mild manner and friendly personality. I also really admire the intentionality with which you do everything. I aspire to a simpler and more relaxed pace of life some day, but in the meantime I watch your videos. Thank you for sharing your life experiences with us... it's very inspiring. Please keep up the wonderful work!
Aww, thanks
